If Jose Mourinho can play riichi mahjong, he will go far. If Deschamps and van Gaal join Jose in a team, they would be unbeatable.

They are mahong pros. They created those super powers. I should know, as I played some of them before.

Achiga-hen side B ( or A S2 ) and Saki S3 would be fabulous announcements or even one of the numerous spin off manga.

Mahjong competitions featuring pro-players have been around for ages, only gimmick this new article highlights is cooperative play like that seen in Saki and other Mahjong manga works. Co-op play has a different nuance to competitive single play because the variance from luck gets reduced significantly thanks to cooperative dealing in etc.
